MONTHLY MUSIC MADNESS: Delta Wave

In my bio, many of you might've noticed that I said I might refer some music to my readers. I said that because music is a passion equal to books for me. It is another escape mechanism from reality, and it incites such deep feelings of...nearly anything. Love, sadness, anger and understanding are just some of what the listener will experience.
Until now, I have fallen short in that department due to the time my blog takes up normally (and I wouldn't have it any other way!!!), but this year I promise you all I will not slack off anymore!
I will try my best to do this monthly (hence the post title): dedicate a post to an artist/band I enjoy listening to and share them with you all. Here is my first artist: my amazingly talented & supportive friends, Delta Wave.

Originally formed in Los Angeles, California a few years ago under the name Awaken The Empire, Delta Wave built a small but dedicated cult following worldwide (who still call themselves "Insomniacs") with their unique brand of electronic rock music, sounding like a mix of 30 Seconds To Mars & Aerosmith.
They released two videos, "The Awakening" & "Rise+ Fall", under that name, and, most notably, they'd opened for indie synth-rock band Kill Hannah at their annual New Heart For X-Mas show in 2012 in Chicago, Illinois (the show was then in its ninth year).
Not long after that, they topped the MTV Buzzworthy charts with their video for "Rise+Fall", receiving high praise and gaining popularity.
Members Damien Lawson (vocals, guitar, lyrics), Daryl Falconer (drums), Shivan Somaratane (guitar) and newest member Romina Fronti (bass) then took a short break, making some changes including their name, location (current base of operations is an island off of Seattle, Washington) and sound, turning to the more alternative subgenre of rock.
Now, they're working on new music to release with Century Media Records, planning a tour with Maphia Management and want to make 2014 their year. And I, having known them all for years, believe that this could truly be the year of Delta Wave!
